Is the solenoid still working or has it failed again?

Overdrive won't turn on in certain conditions, such as the car not being warm enough.  I'd also consider doing a full flush and filter clean/change of the transmission.

i have replaced filter and oil oil wasn't to dirty but changed it anyway. could it be an electrical issue. when it was working was selecting overdrive in all conditions cold engine hot engine kicked in around 45kph on a trailing throttle and locked up around 60-70kph

Did you do a full flush of the transmission fluid? If you just changed the fluid in the pan, then consider doing it again. Will not hurt to check the electrical connections to the shift solenoid. More for general maintenance purposes, clean the battery terminals, check grounding cables and check fuses.
